-# NUFA Translator
-
-The NUFA ("Non Uniform File Access") is a variant of the DHT ("Distributed Hash
-Table") translator, intended for use with workloads that have a high locality
-of reference. Instead of placing new files pseudo-randomly, it places them on
-the same nodes where they are created so that future accesses can be made
-locally. For replicated volumes, this means that one copy will be local and
-others will be remote; the read-replica selection mechanisms will then favor
-the local copy for reads. For non-replicated volumes, the only copy will be
-local.
-
-## Interface
-
-Use of NUFA is controlled by a volume option, as follows.
-
- gluster volume set myvolume cluster.nufa on
-
-This will cause the NUFA translator to be used wherever the DHT translator
-otherwise would be. The rest is all automatic.
